The Museum S01E08 - Old Pots and Puzzles

Irving Finkel, an expert in the world's oldest writing, is called to Scotland Yard to help the police with an enquiry. In the museum's laboratory Rebecca Stacey is hunting for a trace of opium in a small pot 3500 years old. Meanwhile Colin McEwan attempts to try and crack a code - the silent language of the Nasca, the ancient and mysterious South American tribe, famous for etching huge symbols in the Peruvian desert.
